Do we ever bring Gonzo back as a player?
Thought about this over the weekend, watching Moss with Minnesota.

He wanted to play for a contender, and we wanted to change the culture here, so it was a smart divorce, with few - if any - bridges burned.

While Atlanta is doing well, there will be a moment in time when his contract is up. Does he re-sign with Atlanta? Does he retire (obviously as a Chief) this year or next? Does he give it another go with us? Do we let him if he wants to?

I think it would be great if he would come back for a victory lap next year or the year after. He would have great insight for a young Moeaki, and wouldn't take too many snaps from him either.

I picture it in the mold of Vrabel, McGraw, Waters, etc... A surly old vet who is a player/coach.

It would make for a great prodigal son type of story.

I don't think they would do it unless they thought he could come in and help us win. By that time Moeaki could be one of the better TE's in the league. If that's the case I doubt we'd need him.

I would LOVE to have Tony G back, I want him to retire a Chief. Also I really want to see what kind of advice he can give Moeaki.

I see it as a 1 day signing so he can RETIRE a Chief, nothing more. I still got love for Gonzo, and a deep appreciation for what he did while he was here. That being said, he whined his way outta town, and that tends to leave a bad taste in the mouth for guys like Pioli and Haley.

Moeaki has been great, so unless Tony wants to come back making very little money and playing a backup role, I'm strongly against it. Let him do the "retire as a Chief" thing if he wants to, but otherwise, we've moved on.

You've just vindicated yourself after your failure with the server last weekend.

I agree, and don't want to disrespect his accomplishments as a Chief. For a long time, he was the man.

But, towards the end, it was about him and his records, and about him getting a chance with a contender.

That is not the team attitude they are trying to build here.

Sorry, sign him the day before you retire him.

I'd be OK with it. Not that we need him. Moeaki is playing better as a rookie than TG did. Actually, Moeaki may be a better blocker now than TG ever was.

Hell, if we have 2 fullbacks currently, surely there's room for a HOF'er.

Shit - cut O'Connell or Ryan, or whoever the slapdick is at the bottom of the TE chart.

Right, the point wasn't to compare TM with TG.... I was just wondering if it was worth a roster spot in a year or two to bring him on.

Obviously this is looking ahead with many variables between now and then.
